Photos of progress on construction of an accommodation facility for staff working on The Line within the Neom giga-project have been shared by an executive leading the project.

Saudi Arabia’s wildly ambitious plan to build 500m tall, mirrored, 170km long parallel skyscrapers, forming a 1.5M population desert city has been curtailed to 2.4km long.
